Is My Cornea Damaged After Suffering A Scratch?
About 2 years ago my dog scratched the cornea of my right eye. It was treated; however the vision never fully came back. Doctor said 2 years ago he saw no scars. Left eye is fine, but vision in right eye remains blurry.
Any ideas? Sugar levels are OK. I am 49.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having blurring of vision in right eye. Since you give history of injury in the form of scratching corneal opacity can be present.
This requires examination by ophthalmologist using slit lamp for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
